It lurks around the GLOOM biome and generally seems like the sort of creature you should run away from rather than invite closer. Unfortunately for our survival instincts, there is a badge for doing exactly that. If you are hunting down Burn Up The Ghost, you will need to understand the ghost's behavior and make clever use of the environment around you. The good news is that this is less complicated than it sounds. You just need to find the right spot and let the ghost come to you. Here is what you need to know before attempting this ghost-burning endeavor. How To Burn Up The Ghost If you are trying to complete the Burn Up The Ghost badge in Peak, you will need to get a little creative with one of the game's bell towers. Alternatively, you can use a Faerie Lantern or Candlestick if you've found one on your travels, but this guide details the bell tower method. Find A Bell Tower The first thing you need to do is find one of the bell towers scattered around the area. The big ghost will always hang around in the gloom near these towers. We have a full guide detailing how to find these. Once you find a bell tower, don't activate it. Just stick around it and wait for the big ghost to approach. You do not need to chase the ghost or attack it directly. Instead, the goal is to get it close enough to the bell tower for the tower's effect to hit it. Wait For The Big Ghost To Approach Stand near the bell tower and keep an eye on the big ghost as it makes its way toward you. You want to activate the bell tower when the ghost is right next to you and within range of the tower. You'll know the big ghost is near because you'll hear otherworldly squeaky noises start to close in. The timing is the important part here. Do not activate the bell tower as soon as you see the ghost in the distance. Wait until it has gotten close, then activate the tower while it is beside you. If you time it correctly, the bell tower will burn the big ghost. Burn The Ghost As soon as the big ghost is right next to you, activate the bell tower. The tower will burn the ghost (you'll see purple, swirly effects surrounding it), and you should receive the Burn Up The Ghost badge.
